Brush Hogging & Field Mowing in Wayne County, Michigan
Vacant lots in Detroit and Highland Park, open parcels in Canton and Van Buren, and the last farm fields in Huron Township, cut back in a single pass.
Wayne County is the most built-up county we work in, and what open ground is left sits in the gaps: runs of vacant lots in Detroit and Highland Park, unsold parcels near the interchanges in Canton, Van Buren and Huron townships, back acres behind western homes in Plymouth and Northville, and the last farm fields around Huron Township. Weeds are chest-high by midsummer on any of it, and saplings follow within a few seasons.
Brush hogging fits ground that is still tall grass, weeds, briars and brush up to about 3 inches thick. Our rotary cutter rides on a high-flow tracked skid steer, the same machine that carries the FECON mulching head, so a lot with a thicket in one corner is cut and the thicket ground out in the same visit. The brush hogging page explains how a job runs, and the Wayne County page covers the heavier clearing we do around the county.
Most of Wayne County is 20 to 45 minutes from our base in Royal Oak, and that drive is folded into one written project price. Photos of the lot or field and an address are enough to start, so send them on the quote form, or call. Calls are answered 8 AM to 8 PM, seven days a week, and every form and text gets a reply within one business day.

Where Brush Hogging Comes Up in Wayne County
The jobs we are called for most often in Wayne County.
Vacant lots in Detroit and Highland Park
A lot that has gone to tall weeds is cut down in one pass, and the same visit can open the alley edge and the fence line. Several lots on one block are quoted together, and a lot can go on a repeat schedule so it stays cut. Vacant lot cleanup →
Open parcels in Canton, Van Buren and Huron
A parcel near an interchange is often headed for a survey, a listing or a build, and cut ground shows its lines and its size. We cut it back and, where saplings have come up, the lot clearing in Wayne County page covers clearing them, ready for the surveyor or the builder. Site preparation →
Back acres in Canton, Plymouth and Northville
Some western Wayne County homes sit in front of an acre or two of meadow that nobody mows. It is cut once and then kept on a schedule so brush never gets a start, and the mulching vs brush hogging guide helps if you are unsure whether it needs mowing or clearing. Property maintenance →
Farm edges and river-bottom ground in Huron and Van Buren
Fence rows and field edges near the Huron River fill with box elder and wild grape in a few seasons. We mow the open ground and grind the thick edge in one visit, and low ground is held for a dry stretch or frozen soil. Fence line clearing →
How the Job Goes
Send the lot or field
A few phone photos and the address. For a run of lots, send the whole list and we price them together.
Mark what stays
Fence, trees worth keeping, a well cap, a survey pin or a utility marker. We go over each one with you before the machine moves.
Cut it down
The rotary cutter lays down tall weeds and growth up to about 3 inches thick. A thicket in a corner goes under the mulching head on the same visit.
Keep it cut
Lots on repeat cuts stay tidy through the growing season, and the dates and the price for the season are settled up front.
When to do it
Vacant city lots can be cut in any season the ground carries the machine, and the weeks before a listing or a showing are the usual push. Farm edges and river-bottom ground near the Huron River wait for a dry stretch or frozen soil so the tracks stay on top, and leaf-off makes property lines easy to see.
How it is priced
You get one written price before work starts, set from photos or a walk-through. A single lot is quoted on its own and a run of lots together, and the drive from Royal Oak is part of the figure; the pricing guide explains what moves the number.

Brush Hogging Questions We Hear in Wayne County
Can you mow a vacant lot in Detroit or Highland Park?
Yes. Send the address and a photo of each lot. A row of lots on one block is priced as a single job, and a lot can be put on repeat cuts through the growing season.
I have a few open acres behind my house in Canton. Is that worth the call?
Yes. A back acre and a full parcel are both quoted as one project from photos and an address, with the drive already included in the price.
Can you mow field edges on the farm ground in Huron Township?
Yes. We cut the open ground and the grass along fence rows, and box elder or wild grape that has come up in the line is ground out with the mulching head on the same visit.
Can you work the ground along the Huron River?
Yes. River-bottom ground is cut on frozen soil or in a dry stretch so the tracks stay on top, and we tell you which it will be after the photos or the walk-through.
Can you keep a Wayne County lot or field cut on a schedule?
Yes. Lots stay tidy on repeat cuts through the growing season, and an open field holds with one or two cuts a year. The dates and the price for the season are agreed up front.
